b. 294-295

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt III

e1 tied in FE (→EE), contextual interpretation

e1 repeated in GE

..

In the main text, we correct the minor inaccuracy of the notation of the rhythm in FE (→EE). The missing dot prolonging the e1 quaver in bar 294 could have also contributed to the omission of the tie of that note in GE, although, according to us, it is more likely that the tie was added by Chopin in the last stage of proofreading of FE. The crossing-out of the e1 quaver at the beginning of bar 295 visible in FEH emphasises that the note should not be played again in this place.

b. 309

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt I

..

The traces of erasure, visible in A, allow to read the original version of the 1st half of the bar, in which the last note was an a1. In this version, the 3rd and 4th quavers were written in the treble clef, in which the removed note was written; however, it is unknown whether the correction of the moment of the beginning of the slur is to be linked to the change of the last note.

In Morch Chopin shortened the value of the g-e1-b1 chord in violins and violas to a crotchet – originally, it lasted almost two bars, same as the bass note of the C-c chord, held by cellos and double basses.
